A:To get gizzard up for Blue Bird and many other birds seek out mud (looks like droppings) or gravel (grey cloud) both found by the river banks or eat dirt patches when you happen to come across them when other players dig such as snakes or mammals.

Q: Theres no fresh meat and I'm starving to death! What can I do?

A: Find a carcass. You can pick up the meat and drop it. The meat you dropped will be fresh. Do this until your full, then goto a den, and don'tmove.(Unless you get hungry again, then just repeat the steps)

Q. What are the red and green dots next to my ID number on my animal view?

Depending on what animal you are playing, green or red dots may appear. The red dot represents that a predator is detected upwind*. A green dot means that an animal is detected upwind, but it won't harm you.

*Note: Upwind and downwind get confused often. Upwind is where the wind starts, and downwind is where the wind ends.

Q: How do I give milk to my offspring?

A: You don't. They will automatically drink any milk you have. All you need to do is keep your energy up high enough to make milk.

Q:Dominance?

At first, I myself didn't know how to get Dominance. Dominance is the number/number at the right top corner of your advanced view status. Say you are a Female Wolf, and the population of Female wolves in that world is 6. Then you would be 6/6 if you where the latest wolf to spawn. Now say you challenge the 1/6 and win. If you win you trade ranks, meaning that wolf got 6/6 and you got 1/6. If you are 1/6 that means you are the most dominant wolf. For Coyotes and Wolves you need to BE most dominant and mate with the most dominant or you will be turned down.

Q: What is the 3/13 above my age?

Your dominince rank. You can challenge (purple rams) animals with a higher rank and defeat them. For wolves and coyotes its the difference of breeding and controling your pack / being a loner. Some animals require you be above 50 % of ranking males and females. What that menas is out of 8 males you have to have 4/8 or higher rank to be able to mate. If its "true" for alphas to mate then you must have 1/8.

Q: What are those Fire ants? Are they just annoying or have meaning?

fire ants are NPC reserved creatures for now. Theres a rumor going about how you need 99.99 million points (99,999,999) to get a link. for now they are just annyoing but for weak animals like mice and young starter animals (bluebirds and cardnials) they could be deadly if bitten by the group. The have no name, may attack randomly and are hard to hit even if your half aged with full combat since they are so small.

Q: How can I get my health back up quickly?

My strategy is to eat untill your water, fat stomach and energy is full. then go into a den or hole and sit there cleaning and sleeping. dont forget to get minerals (orange cloud) and gizzard (grey cloud for birds) or calicum (fox, wolves, coyotes, bears, bobcats) I put simpley as sit there and take care of yourself.

What's that H?

The H means Heat of battle, after you've hit something or tried to pick another animal up ( or if an animal hits you ) the H will come up.If you log out during Heat Of Battle, the next time you play you'll have very low stats.

For Forum Guests: Q. How to I register an account on the WEO forums?A.First, login to your account on the Web Earth Online game. If you don't have an account, register and login. Then, go to "My Account". Then, go to "Edit Personal Account Settings". Right under the sentence that says "Request here to be added to the WEO Forum", There is a form. Fill it out and then scroll to the bottom of the page and click "Submit." All you have to do after that is login.

Q: how can I be taken care of NPC?

Go to my account> player game options> and check "Always play as infant animal" NOTE: Only possible during spring. if your fast enough at the right time you'll be logged on as an adult already.

Q: How can I get players to be my kids?

2 options:1. If they agree take them from where they are and care for them (your mate might attack.)2. Go to "Player game options" and select "allow real players to be my offspring."

Q: What does the Mayor, Judge and Sheriff do?A:Mayor – The Mayor makes the player-generated rules for World 1. They can edit it at anytime, and add new rules (though there is a word limit).

Judge – The Judge sends the warrant to get someone banned. Read City Hall for more information on reporting players.

Sheriff – The Sheriff bans the player. They can only ban people if the Judge has sent a warrant, or else it doesn’t work.

We recommend you become apart of the forums if you would like to be voted for, since all three of them and the Community help decide if a player will be banned.

There are two options to fix this issue. These are shown below as Option 1 and Option 2. Option 1 is easier to do but is less secure than Option 2. With Option 1 you set the Java Security to Medium. Option 2 is a more complex method but also is more secure for your computer. With Option 2 you add http://game.webearthonline.com/ to the Java exception site list. See below for details on how to do this.

Here is what to do for Option 1:

First Open Control Panel.In Windows Open Control Panel by clicking the Start button

Follow up:I think this has resolved most of the connection issues with the newest version of Java.All that is needed is to answer the security prompt when starting the game.
